If you are resident in another consular district, or if you reside in Italy, you may apply for a passport to be issued at this Consulate (always and only by appointment through Prenot@mi) under exceptional circumstances, which must be proven. In this case, the Consulate must contact the relevant Consular Office or Police Headquarters in Italy and receive authorization to issue your document, with consequent longer waiting times (the “express” service is not possible).
PLEASE NOTE: The minor/infant child born to a parent (one or both) currently in possession of Italian citizenship is an Italian citizen. Therefore, the parent must not submit an application for recognition of Italian citizenship in favor of the minor/infant in order to subsequently submit an application for the issuance of a passport, but must proceed with sending the request for transcription of the birth certificate to this Consulate General, as indicated here.
